- the present invention is a solution for handling communication between mixed protocol telecommunication networks.
- the solution may be implemented in different ways and is applicable on a general basis for 2G/3G networks, e.g. GPRS networks.
- the basic idea of a first method according to the present invention is to construct a new NAS (Non-Access Stratum) protocol over the air between the UE and the core network, such that the same Session management (SM) is usable for both LTE and for 2G/3G access.
- the NAS protocol invokes the appropriate radio and mobility management (RM and MM) according to 2G/3G or LTE access, but uses the same SM (i.e. bearers and QoS) in release (rel) 8.
- NAS SM messages will handle EPS bearers always, but include the appropriate RM/MM (radio and mobility management) information such as RAU (Routing Area Update (used for 2G/3G)) and TAU (Tracking Area Update (used for EUTRAN, LTE)) etc.
- a UE 500 is provided with functionality for handling the mixed protocol situation.
- the UE is provided with a radio management 702 (RM) functionality for handling both 2G/3G 503 and LTE 508 based radio communication protocols interfaces, each with respective session management 501 interfaces: PDP Context 506 and EPS bearer 507 .
- RM radio management 702
- the communication is also straightforward through LTE RM and EPS bearer SM.
- the 2G/3G RM is mixed with the EPS bearer SM.
- the 3GPP TS 24.008 specifies the procedures used at the radio interface core network protocols within the 3rd generation mobile telecommunications system and the digital cellular telecommunications system. It specifies the procedures used at the radio interface (Reference Point Um or Uu, see 3GPP TS 24.002 or 3GPP TS 23.002) for Call Control (CC), Mobility Management (MM), and Session Management (SM). These procedures are defined in terms of messages exchanged over the control channels of the radio interface.
- control channels are described in 3GPP TS 44.003 and 3GPP TS 25.301.
- the structured functions and procedures of this protocol and the relationship with other layers and entities are described in general terms in 3GPP TS 24.007.
- the procedures currently described are for the call control of circuit-switched connections, session management for GPRS services, mobility management and radio resource management for circuit-switched and GPRS services.
- 3GPP TS 24.010 contains functional procedures for support of supplementary services.
- 3GPP TS 24.011 contains functional procedures for support of point-to-point short message services.
- 3GPP TS 24.012 contains functional description of short message—cell broadcast.
- 3GPP TS 44.060 contains procedures for radio link control and medium access control (RLC/MAC) of packet data physical channels.
- RLC/MAC radio link control and medium access control
- 3GPP TS 44.071 contains functional descriptions and procedures for support of location services.
- 3GPP TS 44.003 and 3GPP TS 25.301 They use the functions and services provided by lower layers defined in 3GPP TS 44.005 and 3GPP TS 44.006 or 3GPP TS 25.331 [23c], 3GPP TS 25.322 and 3GPP TS 25.321.
- 3GPP TS 24.007 gives the general description of layer 3 (A/Gb mode) and Non Access Stratum (Iu mode) including procedures, messages format and error handling.
- a second embodiment of the method according to the present invention provides a solution to connect 3GPP radio networks and terminals to an evolved packet core network.
- the basis of the present invention is to define a function in a core network node, such as the SGSN, translating GPRS signalling and parameters into EPS signalling and parameters. This mean the SGSN may hide the specifics of GRPS from EPS and vice versa.
- a new function is defined called Bearer Translation Function (BTF).
- BTF Bearer Translation Function
- the Bearer Translation Function acts as a gateway: translating terminal, RANAP, and Base Station System GPRS Protocol (BSSGP) signalling into EPS specific signalling.
- BSSGP Base Station System GPRS Protocol
- the BTF is preferably placed in the SGSN, thus as close as possible to the RAN, but may also be deployed as a stand alone node somewhere between the SGSN and S-GW.
- the Bearer Translation Function allows the SGSN to hide differences in EPS Bearer/PDP context signalling from other nodes. This would allow deploying EPS networks without bringing legacy functionality into Serving GW and PDN GW.
- Serving GW and PDN GW are the edge nodes in the evolved packet core.
- FIG. 5 The principles of the function are outlined in FIG. 5 using a system 900 according to the present invention.
- two domains are defined.
- One is the PDP Context domain 910 and the other one is the EPS bearer domain 911 .
- the UE 3 is located in the PDP context domain together with a BSS/RNC 901 in contact with an SGSN 902 via an appropriate interface 907 .
- the SGSN 902 may be exemplified as the border between the two domains when the BTF is located in the SGSN.
- On the EPS bearer domain is located a Serving GW 903 in communication with the SGSN via an appropriate interface 908 .
- the SGSN is in communication with an HLR 904 providing QoS settings to the SGSN via an appropriate interface 909 .
- the PDP Context domain is compliant to GPRS, thus PDP Context type of signalling.
- the EPS bearer domain is compliant to EPS bearer signalling (3GPP Rel-8).
- the Bearer Translation Function converts parameters and signalling from one domain to the other domain. Specifics in one domain are not visible in the other domain.
- Bearer Translation Function hides all those indifferences from the outside.
- Translation rules may be pre-configured by Operation and Maintenance means (e.g. by external functions).
- a separate external (or internal) service e.g. a server 217 (as seen in FIG. 2B ) may be used for providing translation rules and/or parameters to a BTF of an operator or network owner.
- the BSS/RNC in the PDP context domain interchanges PFC/RAB procedures 907 with the SGSN 902 .
- the SGSN/BTF translates between EPS bearer eQoS and Gb, Iu, and RIL-3 (Rel-8) PDP Context procedures (defined for EPS procedures on S 4 , minimized changes to Gb, Iu, and UE).
- BTF Bearer Translation Function
- a database is provided in communication with the BTF, which:
- the BTF may be located at different locations in the network depending on the configuration of the network, such as in the SGSN or in a separate node located close to the SGSN.
- the BTF may be implemented as a software function.
- the database holds a translation table between different protocol standards which may be used as a lookup table for fast and accurate response to translational operations.
- the database may be located close to the BTF, in a separate node in the network, or even at a location in an external network.
- FIG. 3 and FIG. 6 One embodiment for an EPS/PDP mixed network of a BTF method according to the present invention may be shown in relation to FIG. 3 and FIG. 6 .
- the functions involved in this procedure are PDP Context 1001 , BTF 1002 , EPS Bearer 1003 , and translation database 1004 .
- the steps of the method are as follows; however it should be understood that not all are essential steps but this is only an example of handling a PDP context signalling procedure:
- PDP context signalling 1005 is sent to the BTF 1002 .
- BTF sends a request 1007 to the DB to create a record 1008 with PDP context related data
- BTF translates 1010 the PDP context parameters into EPS bearer parameters. Parameters, having its equivalent in the corresponding domain, are mapped by the BTF without DB interaction. BTF creates the EPS bearer signalling 1011 .
- BTF receives an EPS bearer signalling 1012 from the EPS Bearer.
- the BTF analyses 1013 the signalling and extract EPS Bearer specific parameter.
- BTF sends a request 1014 to the DB to update the record 1015 with EPS bearer relation data and request needed PDP context related data.
- the DB acknowledges 1016 the update and sends the PDP context related data to the BTF.
- BTF translates 1017 the EPS bearer parameters into PDP context parameters and finalize the PDP Context signalling 1018 .
- Parameters, having its equivalent in the corresponding domain, are mapped by the BTF without DB interaction.
- FIG. 7 gives an example of a Secondary PDP Context Request procedure towards an EPS bearer domain as earlier discussed in relation to FIG. 5 .
- the devices of this embodiment are a UE 1101 , a RAN 1102 , an SGSN 1103 , and a Serving GW 1104 (S-GW),
- S-GW Serving GW 1104
- the BTF is placed in the SGSN 1103 connecting the PDP Context domain with the EPS Bearer domain.
- the UE sends an Activate Secondary PDP Context Request 1105 to the SGSN which performs a translation to the EPS domain using the BTF 1106 .
- the SGSN sends a Request for dedicated bearer activation 1107 with parameters such as QCI, GBR, MBR, and TFT to the S-GW which responds with a Create dedicated bearer request 1108 with parameters such as QCI, GBR, MBR, and ARP.
- the BTF performs translation 1109 back to PDP Context domain and the SGSN sends a RAB/PFC Request 1110 to the RAN 1102 with parameters such as QoS and ARP.
- the RAN and UE perform a RB negotiation 1112 .
- the RAN thereafter transmits a RAB/PFC Response 1113 with QoS parameters to the SGSN.
- the SGSN responds with an Activate secondary PDP context response 1114 with parameters such as QoS and TFT.
- the BTF again performs translation 1115 of control messages in the procedure and the SGSN thereafter transmits a Create dedicated bearer response 1116 to the S-GW.
- the proposed method addresses GPRS networks when evolving into an Evolved Packet Core (EPC) network architecture.
- EPC Evolved Packet Core
- the key advantage is the smooth migration of GPRS networks into a strict EPC architecture.
- New EPC nodes such as Serving GW and PDN GW don't need awareness of legacy PDP Context signaling e.g. QoS, call flow procedures, etc. It is also applicable to legacy GPRS network.
- Legacy awareness is hidden by the Bearer translation function from the adjacent domain.
- the Bearer Translation Function limits awareness into one single function. If as in the given example the functionality is placed in the SGSN, the SGSN becomes the single point of control between the domains.
- operators may deploy an EPC only network and still serve legacy terminals and RAN's. The functionality may simply be achieved by a software update of the SGSN.
- the methods of the present invention may be implemented as software code instruction sets stored in a computer readable storage medium and possible distributed to the nodes in the network using several different distribution methods, such as using the network for transporting code, using storage media such as CD, DVD, floppy disks, HD, Flash memory, EEPROM, and so on as understood by the skilled person.
- the instruction sets need not be implemented as software code/instruction sets but can also be implemented as hardware code/instruction sets in a suitable integrated circuit (FPGA, ASIC, and so on).
- the UE 3 may have an implementation of the present invention in the form of software instruction sets stored in a computer/processor readable storage medium, such as a memory.
- the solution according to the present invention allows for:
